Reynolds Staff is excited for a wonderful year with our amazing students!!

Reynolds School has had some changes to their parking lot over the summer that will affect pick up and drop off. 

To maximize safety, the parking lot is now designed to be ONE WAY and will be angle parking only. 

The entrance is now located just on the west side of the crosswalk. Because of this, it is recommended that when you are entering the parking lot for pick up/drop off, that you turn onto Hatton Ave from the west (Alberta St) to avoid a left hand turn going through the crosswalk. 

Please note that there is a NO PARKING area in the parking lot directly in front of the crosswalk. This has always been there, but is not always followed. Again, this is a safety measure and will be enforced. 

Thank you for the attention paid to these changes. We are confident that once everyone is aware of the process, it will increase our students’ safety!

Important Information regarding Communication with Family from Reynolds and NESD!

The Saskatchewan Teachers’ Federation has announced additional job action. 

A rotating one-day strike will occur on Thursday, February 1, 2024.

This strike will NOT involve STF members in the North East.  Therefore, NESD school schedules will remain unchanged.

STF News Release

North East School Division and CUPE 4875 are pleased to announce that a tentative agreement has been reached.

After months of negotiations, both parties have come to an agreement that addresses their needs and concerns while also supporting the continued success of our schools.

Key highlights of the agreement include wage increases of 3%, 3.5%, and 3.5% over three years.

“We are pleased to have reached an agreement with CUPE 4875 that acknowledges the invaluable contributions of education support workers of the North East School Division,” said Heather Shwetz, Superintendent of Human Resources and Privacy Officer, North East School Division. “This agreement reflects our shared commitment to fostering a supportive and equitable workplace environment.”

“This agreement recognizes the essential contributions of education support workers and moves us closer to pay equity with other school divisions,” said Debbie Dufault, president of CUPE 4875. “We look forward to working together with North East School Division to build a bright future for our students.”

CUPE members voted in favour of the tentative agreement on February 1. It is expected that the school division will ratify the agreement at their meeting on February 13.

Moving forward, both North East School Division and CUPE 4875 are committed to open communication, mutual respect, and ongoing collaboration to support the well-being of employees and the advancement of shared goals.

NESD Families

Please be advised that all NESD schools will return to regularly scheduled times.  The STF is suspending the provincewide withdrawal of noon-hour supervision that was scheduled for Thursday, February 8, 2024.  All school schedules and end of day bus routes will return to regularly scheduled times.

Thank you for your flexibility with this last minute change.

Happy Staff Appreciation Week

This week offers a great opportunity to send a message of thanks to all of the NESD staff.  

We have challenges in the education system and the staff of NESD rise above these challenges daily to deliver a high quality education to the children of the north east.  This could not happen without your dedication to the education profession, as well as, the children and families you serve.  

With the highest regard I would like to send a message from the NESD Board to all of our staff, we see you!  We see the hard work and we see the results.  We appreciate all you do and will continue to do in the future.  

Kindest regards,

Lori Kidney, NESD Board Chair
